The tongue drum: play it alone or in a music band

There are different ways to play tongue drum, an instrument that seems simple at first, but with which you can play more sophisticated melodies than you think. Keep in mind that each instrument is unique. Tongue drums don’t have all the same number of tongues. Some offer a full octave, while others offer a pentatonic scale. But in any case, you can choose to improvise your melodies alone or with your friends.

An instrument to play alone or in a band

Even though the sounds of a tongue drum are very different from a classical drum, the instrument can be played the same way, alone or by combining several tongue drums. The perfectly harmonic notes of the tongue drum make this instrument versatile. You will never hit a wrong note. But there’s more: you can play with friends and the different tongue drums will harmonize with each other.
